Suggest Treatment For Lump Near Neck And Joint Pains

I have a hard non-movable lump on the right side of my neck about the size of a pinto bean. It feels like it may be attached to the larynx? I have been suffering from joint pain (knees, shoulders and right large toe) and swelling mainly in my knees. I seem to have lost strength in my knees due to swelling and muscle tenderness around joints, I am loosing more hair than normal, awful cramps in right callf at night, I get hot flashes but then I get cold and can t get warm, I have no energy, my skin is very dry to the point of tingling.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for the query.1-Its very interesting story.In my opinion small lump on right of your larynx needs to be investigated with thyro-profile tests.2-Your general health have derailed over a period and suggests that you have-hypo-thyroid with associate rheumatic complaints in knee jt and muscles surrounding it.3-I would advise you to have your thyroid test done with other blood tests.4-I would advise medical treatment with the physician nearby.5-Thereafter-If the lump doesnt regress after the specific thryoid treatment, the lump- may need excision-in the later period....but dont worry for it-as its a remote possibility.6-So concentrate with treating the thyroid disease-which is most probable solution for your problem to resolve.Hope I have solved your query.Any more queries in this matter are wellcome..!!Thnks
